I've found quite a few papers where the exact purpose was absorbing in the Ka region so I figure they've already tested and optimized to some extent, all seem to be MWCNTs ranging from 10-40nm average outer diameter, lengths up to 100micron, in polymer between 1 and 10 wt%. I'm still going through more papers to find out best case then compare pricing on the tube types. Also need to check if functionalized CNTs (addition of carboxyl, hydroxyl groups) would behave the same as their counterparts as they'll be much easier to get homogeneous in a polymer. I'm curious if a solid film layer over the front of the bike works then how well partial coverage will work (think: solid 2ftx2ft layer vs same area but 4" strip of layer, 4" no layer, 4" strip, etc. beam spread is pretty wide, 80ft width from 400ft away for Ka). Depending on what weight % I end up with the film will likely be tinted rather than clear, or perhaps might have two versions: lower loading and higher loading, then use the higher loading stuff on chassis, fender, etc, and lower loading over plastic panels, windshield.

Haven't posted here in a while, been a little busy
I have a little project, no idea how well it'll work but it appears in the literature that carbon nanotubes dispersed in polymer with film thicknesses ~1mm do a really good job of absorbing radiation in the Ka band. From some light research I think the main material in vehicles that reflects in the Ka band is metal, hence LEO aiming radar at license plates. Now I don't really care about avoiding tickets in my car, but on a bike... So from what I can gather radar guns operating in Ka (not laser) likely pickup signal from reflection off engine, chassis, or plate, and Ka isn't reflected back from plastic or leather (as long as there isn't metallic paint). So my idea is to make a film of this stuff, make a big section eg: 2ftx2ft, tape it over the whole front fairing then test with a used radar gun off Ebay. If it works then figure out reasonable amount of film coverage needed to still get decent results (coating over front fairing, plastic radiator guard, chassis, rear fenderwell, plate).
Again I don't expect this to be a get out of jail card as there's still laser, using radar on vehicle next to you and visually seeing you pass said vehicle, and so forth, but from what I read in rural areas most LEO use radar over laser as it's simpler to use (easy reading and radar is already connected to their computer so filling out ticket is less work) vs laser being more accurate (won't pickup vehicle speed next to you, works on almost any material) and used on densely populated freeways.
Any thoughts? If anyone wants the literature papers to peruse I can email them to you.

Any suggestions on must see places along the way? I know it's a TON of area, but I've been sheltered in the desert lands.

Few months ago I was coming over on the regular to bang this 29yo mom who was technically still married (didn't divorce since she'd lose benefits from his work and he didn't have enough for child support or some shit), that was fun.
I've yet to bang anyone in the 30s yet, just for kicks.

That was sat-mon. The week prior I met a girl that flew out from PA to hang with some friends (for spring break) but her trip turned to shit so she stayed with me. Then on Wed & Thur I went out with another girl, she was pretty innocent, but definitely dating material. And well the months prior are basically just more of the same, the hard part is not mixing them up / remembering their names on the spot.

I'm making this guy regret his decision to want an open relationship with his GF.
On Saturday I meet this chick, we decide to get food first then hit the bar but she's a bit nervous so we go straight for drinks. After a bit of talking she tells me she's in an open relationship with her BF of two years, after a year he decided he wanted an open relationship and she went with it. Apparently she saw a few people here and there (read random sex with strangers, but nothing serious) when they started, but lately hadn't been until well we went out. So I'm thinking in my head well this is weird, but she's fun and hot, so I just get to fuck her and that works out pretty well so yeah why not. So she tells me this and after a few seconds of pondering I'm like okay I'm cool with that, we leave the bar and start walking more downtown, walked maybe ten minutes until I saw a spot somewhat away from the main walking area / sidewalks. She gets all over me, I'm feeling up her skirt, soaking wet, people walking by stopped and stood there watching, okay fuck this, we head back to my car and her BF texts her something along the lines of don't be out too late and stay in public places. Yeah we get in my car and fuck, few hours later her phone starts ringing so being on her hands and knees she bends over the center console from behind the front seats to grab it, it's her BF, I immediately start eating her ass and tell her to answer it, she says she can't because she's moaning too much. After a few more rings he texts her about when she's coming home. I drive her back to her car and before she gets out she takes her panties off and gives them to me as a reminder until next time.
On Sunday she's busy studying for some nursing exam at home with her BF, I ask her if it's best if I don't text her much especially since she told me her BF was somewhat upset after she told him how much she wanted me, but she said to keep talking, so all day we're talking and things between her and him are going sorta south. We make plans to go out on Wed, but Monday she calls me and says she had a rough day and needs to see me despite all the shit she has to do for classes after just ending her shift, so since we're both still on campus I reserve a study room in the library and she meets me. We ended up both studying for a few hours then her BF asks her when he should come pick her up from campus and she tells him I'm giving her a ride. Ended up fucking in the room until 1am then getting road head taking her home.
This morning she tells me her BF is being cold towards her and feels threatened by me after 3 days. Their relationship is falling apart and while it doesn't make me happy that I'm sure it's not easy on her either, she wants to be with me, and well I want the same.
I just can't help but laugh at how hard this guy fucked up.

Just ran my etymotic MC5s through the washer. Any recommendations for in ear headphones that have the compressible foam inserts? The MC5s always sounded a bit sterile to me, 90% of the time I wear them working out so while I'm not critiquing music it doesn't need to sound like shit either. Budget is under a $100.

Yup, but my newly found bulging belly isn't genes. When I was more muscular and much leaner my abs didn't push away from my frame.Huge fat deposits under my abs could be the cause. It could just be some ongoing gas, or some inflammation from something. Lack of sleep might be part of it You could get a DEXA scan for pretty cheap and see how much fat you got there. I got two for like $150 or something.
